In 1994, Nas's debut album, Illmatic was finally released. Critically acclaimed and widely regarded as one of the best hip-hop albums of all time, Illmatic was the first album awarded Five Mics from The Source magazine.It also featured production from Large Professor, Pete Rock (one half of legendary group with C.L. Smooth), Q-Tip (frontman for A Tribe Called Quest), L.E.S. and DJ Premier (one half of Gang Starr) as well as guest appearances from Nas' friend AZ and his father Olu Dara. Aside from Halftime, three moderately popular singles were released in order to promote Illmatic. However, due to widespread bootlegging and a lack of corporate appeal, the album did not do well in terms of record sales. Despite this, the album was Certified Platinum seven years later.

@sunkcity02 I was only 5 when illmatic came out.The first song I liked by nas was made you look but i was about 11 so didnt really think about it that much then a few years later i heard i now i can and by that time i was more mature and started to track back to his old stuff, I listened to one mic and thought it was the best thing ever, listened to gods son then listened to it was written and finally i listened to illmatic.unlike you every album i listened to by nas got better

My 2nd favorite album of all time, second to Enter the Wu-Tang: 36 Chambers.
Nasty Nas, the legend.
